------------------------------------

             Summary: ASMDependencyAnalyzer.analyze(...) returns non-classes
                 Key: MSHARED-665
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MSHARED-665
             Project: Maven Shared Components
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: maven-dependency-analyzer
    Affects Versions: maven-dependency-analyzer-1.7
            Reporter: Andreas Sewe
         Attachments: example.zip

The {{ASMDependencyAnalyzer}} returns far to many bogus entries, which are not 
class names at all.

The following is taken when the attached example project analyzes itself 
({{java -jar target/dependency-analyzer-test-0.0.1-SNAPSHOT.jar 
file:target/dependency-analyzer-test-0.0.1-SNAPSHOT.jar}}):

{noformat}
Error retrieving checksum file for 
charset=([.[^; ]]*)
java.lang.reflect.Array
Unable to resolve context key: 
RuntimeInvisibleAnnotations
javax.swing.tree.TreeModel
Repetition count must be > 0
project information for 
empty
{noformat}

Note that this is not a problem in the classic {{dependency:analyze}} use case: 
The goal simply computes the set of class dependencies (which contain the 
aforementioned bogus class names) of the current project and compares them with 
the set of classes of its dependencies (this set is fine). 

If one wants to use the {{ASMDependencyAnalyzer}} as a standalone component, 
however, these bogus class name make it pretty much *useless*.

Also, even in the {{dependency:analyze}} case, operating with sets that are a 
lot larger than necessary (there are typically way more strings than class 
names) may impact performance.
